Saturday morning came and Jc family got ready to head out to Gigi's house, for family pictures.

[...]

The day they had been dreading all week finally came. Giovanna got up early morning for the pictures. She wore a soft pink long skirt, With a black tank top and some platform sandals. She left her natural wavy hair down for the pictures.

Gigi was never a self conscious girl. Her family always made her feel pretty, her confidence made her shine always. Jc would always compliment her even in the smallest details...thinking about it now, today they had to see each other again and talk normal at least around their families.

She hadn't told them about what happened between them at his birthday. First of, her father would've lost it. Him and Jc always had a strong bond, Ruben was always proud of Jc. But their is boundaries, some were you can't cross. Meaning kissing the daughter of the man who had a high expectation for.

—Oh Gigi, you look wonderful— said his mom with a smile as she hugged the girl.—Thank you Karen—she smiled and greeted her into the house. Gigi said hi to Roy as well along with Jc's siblings, Tyler and Heather. She was close to them but not as much as Jc, probably because of the age difference but that never bothered them.

—You look wonderful, like always—said Jc as he came up to her with his dorky smile.—Thanks, I like the jacket, it looks great —she laughed, he looked so good with blue. It always made his eyes pop out more.

—¿How was your week?—he asked trying to met with her eyes who she seemed to avoid. —Oh, it was great. You know how school is— he nodded and went back into silence.

—¿Are you kids ready?—asked Gigi's mom as she came up to them from the corner of the living room.

—Jc you go first—said Valerie, her mom. pulling him into the white backdrop. He looked at Gigi almost asking her to save him with just his eyes, the Brunette mouthed "sorry" holding in her laugh.

He was really photogenic, no angle was a bad angle for him. One thing about Jc was his constant change of hairstyles. God, did he went through so many phases in his hair... Although, Gigi love his short hair, it always suited him well. But way he was handsome no matter what.

Then it came her turn, she had to sit in on the ground and have one of her legs crossed from the other. And smile. Giving the more innocent, pure look. That was what Jc loved about her, her sweetness. She was never the bad guy.

From far she saw Jc just stared at her, the way his eyes glowed from just watching her pose. In his eyes she was the most beautiful girl in the world. He admire her smile, the way she didn't have to try to show her beauty. Giovanna felt butterflies in her stomach from how he looked at her. She had never seen him like that before.The whole time he didn't stop smiling, he probably didn't stop the whole time.

They also ended up taking pictures together. He was sitting down on a chair while she stood up with her hands on his shoulder. Their parents awed by it. Especially the moms... it was their dream to see both of their children be inlove.

The shoot ended after a few hours, everyone was tired from smiling all day.

—My cheeks hurt from smiling so much—she complained sitting down on the couch next to Jc who was laying down with his eyes closed.

—Mine do too, but we look great in the pictures—he responded.

—Hey Jc...Can we talk.—she said nervous, which made him get up and look at her. Finally...she was going to talk about it. —Not here although...Somewhere else—
